6:34 am
past the focus was on exhibits made by the staff. that's what these guys are doing. but in the new building there is an entire gallery dedicated to visitors, to give them the chance to go right in there and make things for themselves. this is the future home of what's called the tinkering studio. it's a concept the exploratorium tried out last year at the old building with a cozy make-it-yourself space and several huge events where people reconnect with how things work. no right or wrong, just tools, supplies, and imagination. it was a huge hit. >> you learn and think differently when you are constructing things. >> karen wilkinson is director of the tinkering studio. karen and her staff are very busy assembling a wild collection of interesting gadgets to get your creative juices flowing. this table is full of parts you would find inside things. >> inside of toys and school alarms. this one is a doorbell from my house, my old house. >> tinkerer ryan jenkins showed me some of the crazy contraptions that will be on

6:41 am
marriage, we are trying to have access to marriage. that's what it is about. equal access to an institution that clearly the american society holds dear. >> they said they feel a sense of honor and responsibility for their role in this historic case. it's unclear if the justices will rule narrowly just on california or make a 50-state decision. both sides are optimistic. >> we are very confident that the court will uphold the will of the voters to define marriage between a man and a to woman. >> the justices are expected to rule by the end of june. in san francisco, carolyn tyler, abc7 news. >> and carolyn tyler is traveling to washingtin, d.c. she will be sitting in court when the supreme court considers proposition 8 and the defense of marriage act. her report begins tuesday.
